Montreal stole Vancouver's hearts?Today I found a curious picture on the internet. Somehow I found myself at SeeTheWestEnd.com. It's an old site that hasn't been updated in a while, but I live in the West End now so it was worth a look. Anyway, the curious picture I found was on their Vancouver public art page:It's only curious because I lived just a few blocks away from that statue during 2004 and 2005. That was near its new location in front of the Musée de Beaux-Arts in Montreal: Originally uploaded by Quan Nguyen. I always liked the double heart statue in Montreal. It's a beautiful piece, and I think it fits really well in it's new setting on Sherbrooke Street (flanking the Museum along with the Cow). The top picture is the only time I've seen it in Vancouver, and it looks kind of odd displayed on the grass. So I guess the hearts truly belong in Montreal.
